Russell wakes up in New York to find a very different world to the one he left the night before...

Welcome to Afterworld on Channel4, a tale of a world trying to recover from a cataclysmic event that has changed life on Earth beyond all recognition. 99% of the population has vanished and all technology has been rendered useless. Russell is going to have to go through hell and back if he is going to be reunited with his family 3000 miles away.
